Goya Black Beans

Goya Black Beans had a denser texture than many of the other brands with tasters going so far as to call them, "crunchy." While some did not mind this brand's "slightly undercooked" texture, most were not fans of it. The most likely culprit? The calcium chloride named in the ingredient list as a "firming agent." Despite the "hard" texture, almost all the tasters enjoyed this brand's "good salt level." goya.com
